# Nintendo GameCube Emulator
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Dolwin is work-in-progress emulator of Nintendo GameCube console.
|
|
|
|
The goal of the emulator is to research the hardware features of GameCube and reverse engineer technologies used to develop games for this platform.
|
|
GameCube is the hardware masterpiece of Nintendo/ArtX engineers and it's a pleasure to explore this device and discover something new for yourself.
|
|
|
|
This project is revived from 2004 in 2020.
|
|
|
|
## Building Windows version
|
|
|
|
Build using Visual Studio 2019. To build, open Dolwin_VS2019.sln and click Build.
|
|
|
|
## Third-party code
|
|
|
|
Try not to use third-party libraries without special need.
|
|
|
|
(This does not apply to UI and backends.)
|
|
|
|
## Why "Dolwin"?
|
|
|
|
Dolwin was originally stands for "Nintendo *Dol*phin Emulator for *Win*dows" (Dolphin is GameCube codename).
|
|
Later `Dolphin` was changed to `GameCube`, so that there is no confusion with another emulator - Dolphin-emu.
|
|
|
|
Later public is interested in the possibility of launching and porting Dolwin in other OSes.
|
|
|
|
Therefore, a small rebranding was made, now Dolwin stands for "Nintendo GameCube Emulator not only for Windows". Lol.
|
|
|
|
Now it's easier to count Dolwin as a common noun that doesn't mean anything.
|
